Capturing the Essence

Happy 2007! If you're like a lot of people, you or someone you know has a brand-new digital camera this year, and you want to get out and use it...it's a great time to capture winter wonderland photos. Now that we're getting a little snow here in the Chicago area, there are a lot of great photo opps: snowmen, skating, sledding, that one lovely green leaf peeking through the snow cover. The lake is particularly photogenic this time of year, with lots of waves and interesting ice and snow formations.

When shooting outdoors in cold weather, always take a spare set of batteries with you, as cold temperatures cause them to run out much faster than indoor or moderate temps. Also, don't be fooled by white snow - it's often overcast in the winter, and it's a good idea to try a few shots with your flash on, even outdoors. As I tell students, photography should be fun, so try different settings and compare the results. You'll be amazed at your own creativity!
